Betrayed by Husband Divorced when Pregnant (Kelly and Pierce) novel Chapter 185

Chapter 185: Chapter 185 Allies...

Kelly’s POV

Pierce came back with a cake. I smiled when he prepared it and gave me a piece on the plate. He was staring at my face again and since he’s been doing that all this time, I didn’t confront him about it.

“Kelly...”

“Hmm?” I drank the water he gave me.

“I saw Klay Carver.”

My chew slowed down until it completely stopped. I lifted my face and looked at him worriedly.

“Are you okay? Did he say or do something?”

He shook his head and extended his arm, giving me a flash drive. “He wants me to give this to you.”

My forehead creased as I dropped my gaze to the small and black rectangular thing on his palm.

“What’s that?”

He shrugged his shoulders and gently put it in my hand. “I’ll ask my assistant to bring my laptop or ipad here.”

I nodded and looked at the flash drive in my hand before I looked into his eyes again. “Did he say something bad? Did he...”

He held my hand, stopping me. He smiled and caressed my cheek with his other hand.

“Don’t worry, Kels. He didn’t come to fight. He wants to...check on you.”

I blinked thrice before I nodded and sighed. “He said he regretted what he did to me. Should I...believe him?”

“Can you feel his sincerity?”

I bit my bottom lip because of his question. I can feel it but...I’m afraid of trusting Klay again.

“I know I shouldn’t compare but if you forgave me even after the cruel things I did to you because you felt my sincerity, why can’t you do the same to him?”

My heart ached. He was right. If we look at it, it’s just the same. The pain they brought to me was the same but I forgave Pierce. So why can’t I bring myself to forgive Klay? Was it because I expected too much from him because I know he gave all of him to me? Or was it because he also hurt the little child in me who should rely on him as my step brother?

“Forgiveness is up to you, Kelly. If your heart wants to give him the forgiveness he’s seeking and if it will make you feel better...then forgive him.”

I stared into his beautiful brown eyes. He’s always so kind even to the people who don’t deserve his kindness.

*** Pierce’s POV

Kelly wants to forgive him. I can see it in her eyes but she’s afraid that he’ll hurt and disappoint her again. I can’t stand seeing that look in her eyes. I feel...guilty and pained.

I asked dad to visit the police station to get an update about the shooter. I was waiting for him outside Kelly’s hospital room when I saw Emily walking towards me.

“How’s Kelly?”

I stared at her as dad’s words crossed my mind again.

There’s a traitor among the people I trust. I don’t know who exactly is the traitor but I have to be careful.

“Pierce!” Emily snapped her fingers before my eyes and flipped her hair.

“She’s resting,” I said coldly.
